We just bought a 179 (haven't even picked it up yet) but I'm so excited I had to share! We are new to RV'ing - we bought a used 28" Skyline Texan and went on one trip to Davis Mountains State Park. We are sold on RVing but realized right away we had made a mistake with our choice. Several people at the campground had r-pod's and other small units. So here we are, waiting on our new baby!Smile

Congratulations and welcome! We bought our 2016 RP-179 in December, 2015. We have enjoyed it very much. I have made a number of modifications to make it even better for us. You can see them from the link in my signature. Some may be useful for you. I hope you enjoy yours and make many wonderful memories with it.

Welcome. We live in the Dallas area and have had our 179 for about a year and a half. It pulls so nicely with our Fastway E2 WDH that we barely notice it's behind our 2012 Highlander. There's plenty of room for me, my wife, and our three cats.

Welcome & congrats on the new R-179! We too have an R-179 that we've had for a bit over a year. We think it's perfect for the two of us (no pets), and is massive upgrade from tent camping and backpacking.

The R-Pod doesn't fit in the backpack as well though.

True that. However, the backpacks do fit in the R-pod. Wink

Hi! Just curious, where do you put the cat box? We travel with a cat and a dog.
